Features: This book is a translation of the same-named work by Australian author Cyril Pearl. The original is essentially a biography based on the diaries of Morley. Morley began working as a correspondent for The Times in China in 1897, was appointed as a political advisor to Yuan Shikai by the Beiyang government in 1912, and lived in China for 20 years. He was an eyewitness and participant in many major events of modern Chinese history. His feelings toward China were very contradictory and complex.
